I'd qualify that by writing that you can't run it with ordinary, real-time speed and throughput. If all you care about is slow and high-latency inference, there's no reason why that shouldn't be feasible even on the cheapest miniPC around, as long as it can literally store the model weights and keep around the (rather small) context.
